Which is the opposite of what this article claims.

It is an article from May 2024 describing where Blinken and Romney explictly state the political push to get the law passed was directly influenced by TikTok demonstrating pro-Palestinian perspectives.

Also of note they didn't rule out extending similar action to entities similar to TikTok.
